And I wish I could personally thank you for that (I guess I'm doing that
now.) :)

What I really meant to say is that this is not a new problem, and it did
affect several packages including vim (which I'm addicted to) and
rox-something (that I obviously don't use.) :) It was a learning
experience. I ended up reloading several old versions of NetBSD (I think
1004 or something in the snapshot directory is broken, btw) and having
lots of trouble.

I actually was back to using a SPARCclassic with Solaris 2.6 so I could
run vim. :)
